How to bypass pytest fixture decorator?

Question

@pytest_fixture
def some_fix():
    return some_data

I want to call this some_fix function directly. How do I bypass pytest fixture decorator?

Answer 1

Applying any trick that bypasses the decorator has the same value as decrementing a number after incrementing it. The cleanest solution would be to define two functions:

def plain_function():
    # call this function when you need to bypass decorator
    pass


 @pytest.fixture
 def simlar_fixture():
    return plain_function()
